Nintendo set to benefit from publisher downsizing

GI.Biz writes: "As third-party publishers scale back operations and refocus their portfolios, Nintendo's Wii and DS are apparently set to benefit the most from a downsized industry.

That's a belief held by Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, who noted in a recent conference call that publishers are backing the hardware with the highest uptake amongst consumers, rather than the most powerful gaming machines on the market."
